THE Calvert SHIRTS COLUMN
Stow;
This column wouldn't think of becoming
involved in any arguments concerning the
birth -place of hockey. That's a topic too
controversial for our placid existence.
But one "first," and an Important one,
in the history of hockey in this Dominion,
we must hand to Sault Ste. Marie. It was
the first Canadian city to boast a professional hockey team.
For long before the old National Hockey Association.was organ-
ized, preceding the present National League, the Soo was a
member of the Professional International League, formed in
i904. The two Soos, Portage Lake and Calumet in Michigan,
along with Pittsburg, constituted the first line-up of this League,
later joined by the Houghton, Michigan, club..
Thosewere the days of real sport in hockey. The Can-
adiah Soo -club was formed by four sportsmen of the city, of
whom John P. Mooney and George S. Cowie are still living.
These four sportsmen put up $250' each, ran the club for two
years. Players' salaries were then from $20 to $35 per week,
withthe added inducement that sweaters, sticks and skates were
free. And some names that are legendary in Canada's hockey
annals today dotted the rosters of those clubs—names such as
"Cyclone" Taylor, Newsy Lalonde, Jack Laviolette, Didier Pitre,
Hod Stuart, a hockey immortal who was manager and player,,
for Pittsburg, Jimmy Gardner, Con Corbeau, and a dozen more.
The Canadian Soo team on one occasion was forced to break
through the salary limit of $35. The club had suffered a great
many injuries, and as a daring replacement, it was decided to
secure Newsy Lalonde. Newsy came high. He asked for $50
per week for four weeks and, 'sportingly, the club agreed to pay.
The train bearing the great Lalonde arrived at 8 o'clock the
night of the big game, three hours late. Lalonde stepped off,
dressed to play and even wearing his skates. He played incog-
nito, scored three goals, and not until the next day did the
identity of this wizard of the ice become known.
Sault Ste. Marie was just a small town in those days. It had
not yet amalgamated with Steelton and the combined population'
did not exceed 9,000. But interest in hockey ran high, as it
still does in this sporting centre, which regularly sends players
to the National League. In later days it developed the great
Sault Greyhounds that have won their share of amateur cham-
pionships. The spirit that sponsored a professional team, whose
roster included many of the greats of hockey in a league of
ambitions far beyond normal expectations, still carries on
around the Sault, producing great hockey, fine - players and
enthusiastic crowds. crowds are more
than those who staged heThese efamouss post -game mob battles,of thrly, no e
turn of the century, but just as keen.
